Is there a better way to download files from the zoo? First, bash replaces ~ by your userid on your local computer, which may not be the same as your netID. To prevent this, enclose the argument in single quotes. Second, as far as I know scp does not accept lists of filenames in braces. --Stan-PREV INDEX NEXT
